Multiple high-ranking Islamic Revolution Guard Corps commanders and regime officials were killed in Operation Epic Fury, according to a report.
US and Israel launched at least seven missiles on Iran Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s fortified compound, killing numerous senior officials, an Iranian source told Reuters.
Another 40 people were killed when Israeli missiles landed on a school, Reuters reported, citing Iranian state media.
President Trump said in an address early Saturday morning that the strikes were targeting Iranian leadership and that Operation Epic Fury’s objective was to “defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.”
The 86-year-old supreme leader was reportedly not in the compound — or in Tehran — when the strikes were launched. He has since been moved to an undisclosed secure location.
